Ingredients
- 12 green king prawns, peeled and deveined
- garlic steak seasoning (commercial brand)
- chopped parsley
- 120 g butter, cubed
- olive oil
- 2 limes, halved
Instructions
Thread the peeled prawns onto skewers, putting two on each skewer if they are small prawns.
Place the skewers on a plate in a single layer and sprinkle the garlic seasoning and chopped parsley over them. Turn and repeat. (Be careful not to use too much of the garlic seasoning or they will be too salty).
Heat a barbecue flatplate over high heat.
Place half the butter cubes onto the heated plate and add a splash of olive oil to stop the butter burning.
Lay the prawns on the barbecue plate and cook until they just start to turn golden, about 1-2 minutes.
Turn the prawns over and put more butter cubes over. While cooking for another 30 seconds, squeeze the fresh lime juice over them, then remove and place on a serving plate.
